ten feet in depth, to the surface Of the

days ago we could sit on the north end of
this rock rib and watch the torrid waves
rush down the inclosure, strike the wall
beneath our feet and sink into the earth,
to reappear at the upper end with undi-

we find that the boiling flood shoots out

DR.. Collyer remarked that he had work

preached sermons that nobody wanted %

achieved by pure grit and honest In

pan, he said, to lay foundation to fame

grouped as follows:
Work is good medicine.

ano ther.
Any kind of an honest job is better
than no job at all.

1t is a favorite plan Of the promoters of
American enterprise to seek capital in
Europe, notably in London and AmsteT-
dam. 1t is not an easy task by any means
10 induce foreign capitalists to invest in
new projects ON this side of the water,
especially since there have been so many
enterprises taken up by them in which
their money has been spent without re-
turn, and they are apt to look upon every
thing that has an American stamp as n
wholesale swindle until they have looked
closely into it, But they are not without
tricks themselves in London. The presi-
dent of leading railroad corporation who
has raised large amounts of money there
at different times for various enterprises
said the other day: ''You can be sure of
nothing in London in raising money until
you have the cash in bank. had : ,000,-
600 already counted out for me and the
papers drawn and ready to sign, and yet
had the money put back in the vaults and
the papers back into my pocket. London
is full of financial blackmailers, and it
was one of these that rung in his little
game on me. 1t cost me at least 100000
to get my negotiation through but / had
the satisfaction of knowing that the black
mailer got no money from it,
They watch the American newspapers
sOT accounts OF new enterprises Jnat are
likely to seek capital abroad, and then
they watch on that side of the water for
the man who is to negotiate the securities
and cleverly manage to ingratiate them
selves by proffered assistance and other
WISE so as to be in position to know
every stage OF. .his progress. They will
wait until the 8hst moment before his
negotiation is conducted and then strike
him. They generally have a newspaper
at their back and frequently succeed in
soaring their victim into paying a good
round sum to prevent an attack on his
scheme, which he knows will be disturb
ing and disastrous to his enterprise, even
though unfounded upon any reasonable or
just claim. After one or two experiences
in London, have always made my trips
there with the utmost secrecy, allowing
no newspaper mention to be made at
home of my departure. On my arrival
there have gone to unfrequented hotels
out of the way of friends and acquaint-
ances, until all my negotiations were con-
cluded. That is the safest way. New

Cats in BustIes aud Dogs in NUNS.

Fashion has long been favorable to dogs.
Cats are now coming forward. Some
charming bellies at Luchon thought this
season of Using the Pyrenean cat--which
is pretty creature, and not SO wild as it
looks-as a suivez moi, jeune homme.
The notion sprang up in this way A
beauty down there was given, in one of
her excursions, a lovely cat. But as her
arms were laden with mountain flowers,
how carry it? A peasant suggested cut
ting hole at one of the ends of O hand
basket for needlework, just large enough
for the cats neck to be held in without
strangulation when the lid was fastened
down. AS the basket was padded and
lined with satin, and bedizened with
fringe and ribbons, pussy did not object
to being q prisoner therein, and to being
placed on the lady's hustle as a pack
There was no other means of carrying the
feline unless there. So the basket was
fitted up with strings to tie on to the
waist; and so borne into Luchon. !. The
arrangement was daring, original and
piquant. 1t found imitators, and in q few
days there were not Pyrenean cats enough
for the ladies' bustles. Fashion even
dared to invade the sanctuary at Lourdes
with a mountain tom or tabby on the dor
sal hump.
A fashion prophet tells me that next
winter the back part of the muf will con-
tain pouch in which cat is to lie A
contrivance of this sort was first hit upon
by Mile Schneider for her black and tan
terrier, which regarded the inside of the
muff as prison and wanted to look about
when keeping the hands of his mistress
warm. The Duchess de Bauffremont
then took up the arrangement and used to
carry about as many puppies as could fit
into the pouch. Princess Isabeau de
Beauvais Craon used to remind me of
maternal kangaroo. Her muff had the
pocket in front and parcel of pups
heads of various breeds peeped from out
of the opening at the top.-Paris Cor

Sensational Testimony Against the IndI
ana Judges.


ana Judges.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, July ga report
that Sam Perkins would be called to te 5tify
In the election conspiracy cases called hun
dreds Of persons to the Federal Courtroom.
Perkins testimony was Of the most sensa-
tional character. He said that Sam Gov
came to him on the day the Canvassing
Board met and said that the candidate for
Criminal Court Judge was behind, and
needed about eighty votes to elect him. At
the instance Of Coy the witness went to
Allen, the inspector, and secured his tally
sheet. Then he and Coy went to a rear room
in the Court House. where, with Coy's knife
he erased sixteen votes from Irwin's tallies
and added them to Ayres' While thus engaged
Mattler came in and his tally sheets were
similarly changed Later Coy told the wit
ness that Mattler had changed his tally
sheets back again, because the ink which
Perkins had used was different from that
used by the election boards. Coy then sent
Reardon, another defendant, to purchase ink
such as had beer used by the election officers.
After the witness returned to the room where
the Canvassing Board were sitting, Albert
Beck, Congressman Bynum's law partner,
came to him and asked him to change the
tally sheets which he had under his arm.
Witness refused, but gave Beck Coy's knife
and directed him to the east end room,
where Coy was changing the returns. Wit
ness stated that he and Dr. Metcalf talked
the matter over, and Metcalf procured some
acid, which they tried upon an envelope.
Metcalf took this to the Grand Hotel, where
Coy had engaged room. Afterward Met
calf said to witness that the returns from
the Fourth Ward, when presented to the
board, would be "dandy" This was the
tally sheet upon which the acid was used,
Tilat night when the board was in session a
motion was made to bring certain OF the
sealed tally sheets to the room aud count the
returns from them. At that Juncture Henry
Spaan said to the witness: "What
do you mean by that motionl
How can you count the altered tally-sheets il
the other returns are brought here" On an
other occasion Spaan told the witness that he
and others had raised 81 400 and it had been
used in influencing the Federal grand jury
not to find indictments. This was before the
first grand jury met, and the money was sent
to the counties where the jurors lived, it be-
ing conceded that they could be influenced
more easily by their friends at home than
after reaching this city.
The witness was subjected to a rigid cross
examination, but his testimony was not
shaken. The defense laid the ground for i'm
parchment in several important particulars,
but it remains TO he seen whether this will be
done. The remaining witnesses of the day
corroborated Perkins i'll many Of his state
ments, especially those affecting Coy and
Mattler, and it Is conceded that the govern
ment is making very strong case.
